Coco's Chinese Restaurant - Revisit

Danny Ting has left the building... And so did his cooking. This guy is worse than Peter Chang, well, mebbe not that bad. But let's see how the food is nowadays. Walked in, the place was empty. Oh, dear... No turning back now. Just order a couple classic dishes and then we'll know where they stand...

Beef Tripe and Tendon. This woulda been good if it actually contain the headliner of this dish but not one piece of tripe or tendon showed up for work. All this dish consisted of was blood pudding and a few scraps of unidentified offal, all hidden in a mud bath. I'm over it, next...

Squid with Sour Mustard. Sour mustard is a hard to find dish in this town. Coco made an amazing one with intestines under Danny Ting but now, the sour mustard is almost non-existent and totally tasteless. Adding insult to injury, they used celery as a camo filler to make it look like it was sour mustard. The squid was ok but overall, a total failure as a complete dish. So disappointing.

Eggplant and Minced Pork with Garlic Sauce. The good old standby dish that never fails to please. This was not bad but this came out in a PLASTIC bowl not in a clay pot. WTF. You just fucking ruined this dish for me, you fucking fuck. Now, I'm gonna have nightmares.

I have never wanted to leave a Chinese resto as fast as I did after 2 minutes of sitting down. The pouch instincts never fails. The damn server even left in the middle of service, I guess her shift was over, but thanks for the heads up, whore. I'm really not that surprised with these FOBs. Anything goes on Buford Hwy.

This place was really good for a short while but now, it's totally the opposite... No need to waste anymore time, money and pouch space on the rest of the menu.

They coulda been a contender... Now, they are just a pretender.

Fair Rating.
